17 Autotools (<code class="filename">autoconf</code>, <code class="filename">automake</code>,
18 and <code class="filename">libtool</code>) bring standardization.
19 This class defines a set of tasks (configure, compile etc.) that
20 work for all Autotooled packages.
21 It should usually be enough to define a few standard variables
22 and then simply <code class="filename">inherit autotools</code>.
23 This class can also work with software that emulates Autotools.
24 For more information, see the
25 "<a class="link" href="../dev-manual/usingpoky-extend-addpkg-autotools.html" target="_self">Autotooled Package</a>"
26 section in the Yocto Project Development Manual.

29 It's useful to have some idea of how the tasks defined by this class work
30 and what they do behind the scenes.

32<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
33<li class="listitem"><p><code class="filename">do_configure</code> &#8208; regenerates the
34 configure script (using <code class="filename">autoreconf</code>) and then launches it
35 with a standard set of arguments used during cross-compilation.
36 You can pass additional parameters to <code class="filename">configure</code> through the
37 <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-EXTRA_OECONF" title="EXTRA_OECONF">EXTRA_OECONF</a></code> variable.
38 </p></li>
39<li class="listitem"><p><code class="filename">do_compile</code> &#8208; runs <code class="filename">make</code> with
40 arguments that specify the compiler and linker.
41 You can pass additional arguments through
42 the <code class="filename"><a class="link" href="ref-variables-glos.html#var-EXTRA_OEMAKE" title="EXTRA_OEMAKE">EXTRA_OEMAKE</a></code> variable.
43 </p></li>
44<li class="listitem"><p><code class="filename">do_install</code> &#8208; runs <code class="filename">make install</code>
45 and passes a DESTDIR option, which takes its value from the standard
